Englendingurinn Russell Martin mun stýra Leicester City á komandi leiktíð í ensku C-deild karla í knattspyrnu.

Martin, sem skrifar undir þriggja ára samning, tekur við liðinu af Gary Rowett sem var ráðinn til bráðabirgða í febrúar.

Martin var síðast við stjórnartaumana hjá Rangers en hann var rekinn frá félaginu í október eftir slaka byrjun. Sömuleiðis hefur Martin stýrt enska félaginu Southampton.

Leicester féll úr ensku B-deildinni eftir að liðið endaði með 46 stig í 23. sæti. Liðið mun því leika í C-deildinni á næsta tímabili í fyrsta sinn í 17 ár.
